Mir and Satmar go toe to toe

The Mir Yeshiva administration recently forbade any of its students to attend the protest/rally against the new IDF draft law for Haredim that was set to take place after 10 Teves this week.

In response, the Satmar community is calling on their followers to not attend the Mir Yeshiva dinner set to take place in Boro Park next week.




This made me wonder - how many Satmar hassidim normally attend the Mir Yeshiva dinnners and fundraising events? Is this a major threat that will make the Mir Yeshiva quake in its boots?

  1. This demo was an entire political ploy to field interest in PELEG/BNEI TORAH party versus the UTJ party. It was funded, organized and publicized by the Satmar kehillos, follow the money trail and find who are the donors to this rally? Its quite costly to hire PA system, set up dais, make costumes, secure a photographer and get the crowd. WHO IS FOOTING THE BILL?

    1. So what's the answer? Who is footing the bill?
